  The federal capital territory of Nigeria, Abuja has come under heavy security attacks following threats by some terrorists to kidnap President Muhammadu Buhari. There have been intelligent reports of some areas in Abuja that the terrorists have planned to attack and this led to the shut down of all federal government colleges in the FCT. It would be recalled that some presidential guard were killed by bandits earlier this week.

Sources said the terrorists arrived Zuma Rock on the axis of Madalla and Suleija along the Abuja-Kaduna highway, at about 8.30p.m., and took the soldiers by surprise, opening fire from different angles. “They were shooting continuously at the checkpoint for more almost one hour, and soldiers at the checkpoint were fighting back.

  Members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, popularly known as "Shi'ites" on Monday in Abuja staged a peaceful protest to demand for the release of the international passports of their leader, Ibraheem El-Zakzaky and his wife, Zeenat. The group, which gathered along the Aguyi Ironsi Way in Maitama, accused the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government of gross violation of the fundamental human rights of the couple.

The protesters vowed to sustain the protest and hold those in positions of power responsible, if anything untoward should happen to them. There was no record of any attack from the security agents as the protest was later terminated shortly after the protesters had passed their message to the Nigerian government. Peter Obi Can’
